Thanks for the tutorial.
I was hoping for a different solution. The error that I get from b4a is:
jarsigner: Certificate chain not found for: b4a. b4a must reference a valid KeyStore key entry containing a private key and corresponding public key certificate chain.
I notice that b4a doesn't ask for the Alias name of the keystore. When I created the keystore in eclipse, it asks for an alias. Is there something that can be done? Isn't a keystore a keystore. Shouldn't I be able to use the same keystore in b4a that I used in eclipse?

JonPM,
Hey, I found a better way of doing what you want. Ther is a program called AppToMarket v2.4
It will use any keystore and your app and sign, verify an zipalign it. The link is here. apptomarket - AppToMarket - Google Project Hosting
Erel,
I figured out why B4A won't use my keystore from eclipse. B4A uses the alias "b4a". You need to create a field where the user can input there own alias name. If there is a work around for the moment, please let me know. Thanks

I can't change the alias of my keystore or it won't recognize my app on the android market. It has to be the exact same keystore.
Under "Private Sign Key", it should be easy to add an additional field allowing an alias along with organization, password etc. When using the command line exe it allows you to enter the alias along with organization, first and last name, etc. If a command line approach is already used by b4a, it shouldn't be hard to implement.
Erel, you are very smart. I am sure you can figure it out. Furthermore this is the last denominator needed to allow porting existing apps to b4a. With this ability developers can to still be able to release an update to their app once it is converted to b4a.

What I did was make batch files for my apps that have non b4a keys. Then it only takes me a couple seconds (literally) to sign the app
